STEP UP YOUR

COOKING GAME

Cooking is one of the most fundamental skills that everyone needs to know,
AND EVERYONE – TO SOME EXTENT – IS CAPABLE OF PUTTING TOGETHER SOME KIND OF MEAL. IT MAY BE AS SIMPLE AS CHEESE ON TOAST, IT MAY BE SOMETHING AS FANCY AS LOBSTER THERMIDOR, OR IT COULD BE SOMEWHERE IN THE MIDDLE, A WORKING KNOWLEDGE OF FOOD AND HOW TO
MAKE IT TASTE PRETTY GOOD.
But just as everyone needs to know how to cook, everyone can benefit from being a better cook. And, as with most things, the better at it you get, the more you enjoy it, meaning that cooking becomes less of a chore and more something to look forward to.
If you’ re not sure where to start when it comes to upping your cookery game you really have two options. The first is to watch some online cookery courses and get involved in your own kitchen. The second is to enrol in a hands-on cookery course near you, and get some face to face tuition. Either choice is a good one, and at insideKENT we have put together a few places where you can get started. Bon appetit!
